[A Korean Story] Never judge a book by its cover. Advice and Life Lessons

A Korean Story and lessons to learn

가만히 읽다보니 참 좋은 이야기라 올려봅니다.~

Sit back and read this passage, its quite a good story... 

부부가 해상에서 위험에 부딪혔는데,

부인을 돌보지 않고 혼자 도망쳤을 때,

부인이 마지막에 한 말은.....?

There was a couple who was in danger at sea

Without looking back, the husband left and ran off alone

What could have been the last words that the wife would say to her husband?

한쌍의 부부가 유람선에서 해상재난을 당했는데 구조정에는 자리가 하나 밖에 없었다. 이 때 남편은 부인을 남겨두고 혼자 구조선에 올랐고 부인은 침몰하는 배 위에서 남편을 향해 소리쳤다.

After suffering from the disaster of a cruise ship, there remained one last seat on the rescue boat. At this point, the husband left his wife and hopped onto the rescue boat while the wife shouted at him at the top of her lungs her final words.

선생님은 여기까지 얘기하고는 학생들에게 질문했다.

"여러분, 부인이 무슨 말을 했을까요?"

학생들은 모두 격분하여 말하기를, "당신을 저주해요. 내가 정말 눈이 삐었지!!"

The professor stopped at this point and asked the students a question.

"Alright, everyone. What does everyone think the last words of the wife were?"

All at once, the students began to shout, "Curse you! How could I have trusted you!"

이때 선생님은 한 학생은 한 마디도 하지 않고 있는 것을 발견하고 그 학생에게 다시 물었더니, 그 학생은, "선생님, 제가 생각했을 때, 부인은 아마 이렇게 말했을 것 같습니다.- 우리 아이 잘 부탁해요"

At this point, the professor noticed one student who hadn't said a word and asked this student again the same question. The student replied,"Professor, I believe that the wife said to the husband, 'take care of our children.'"

선생님은 깜짝놀라며 물었다.

"너 이 얘기 들어봤니?"

학생은 머리를 흔들며, "아니요. 그런데 제 모친이 돌아가실 때 아버지한테 이렇게 말했어요."

선생님은 감격해 하며,

"정답이다."

그리고 이야기를 계속 이어 나갔습니다.

Startled, the professor asked the student, "have you heard this story before?"

While shaking his head, he replied, "No, but before my mother passed, she had said this to my father."

Impressed, the professor exclaimed, "Exactly!"

And the story continued.

배는 침몰했고 남편은 집으로 돌아와 딸을 잘 키웠고, 몇년 후 병으로 죽었습니다. 딸이 아빠의 유물을 정리하던 중 아빠의 일기장을 발견하는데,

아빠와 엄마가 배여행을 갔을 때 엄마는 이미 고칠 수 없는 중병에 걸려있었고 그 때 마침 사고가 발생하였고 아빠는 살 수 있는 유일한 기회를 버릴 수가 없었던 겁니다. 아빠의 일기에는 이렇게 쓰여 있었다.

- 그 때 나도 당신과 함께 바닷속에서 죽고 싶었지만, 그럴수가 없었지. 우리의 딸 때문에, 당신만 깊고 깊은 해저 속에 잠들게 밖에 할 수 없었어."

After the boat had sank, the husband returned back home and raised their daughter beautifully and many years later died from a disease.

While the daughter was cleaning up the belongings of her late father, she found his diary.

During the time of their trip, the mother had already been diagnosed with an incurable disease and at the time of the accident the husband had no choice and could not throw away his only chance to live. In the diary, it was written as so:

"I wanted to follow you to the bottom of the ocean and die together so I could never leave your side, but I knew I couldn't because of our daughter waiting back at home. So I had to leave you to sleep alone deep, deep, deep at the bottom of the blue sea."

이야기를 끝내자, 교실은 조용했다. 선생님도 알 수 있었다. 학생들도 이미 이 이야기가 무엇을 뜻하는지 깨달았다는 것을,,

As soon as the story had come to an end, the classroom was quiet. The professor could sense it. The students had come to realize the true meaning behind this story 

세상에서 선과 악이란 어떤 때는 복잡하게 얽혀있어 쉽게 판단할 수 없을 때가 있다. 그냥 눈에 보이는 대로만 상대를 가볍게 판단해서는 안된다.

In this world, there is both good and evil, and sometimes intricacy. There times when you cannot easily determine between the two. Things just can't be judged based on what you just see or hear.

주동적으로 밥값 계산을 하는 이는, 돈이 많아서 그런 것이 아니라 돈보다 우정을 더 중히 생각하기 때문이다.
The person that always pays for a meal is not because they have so much money but because they value relationships more than money.

일할 때 주동적으로 하는 이는, 바보스러워서 그런게 아니라 책임이라는 것을 알기 때문이다.

The one that works very actively is not because they are stupid but because they know the meaning of responsibility 

말싸움 후에 먼저 사과하는 이는, 잘못해서 그러는게 아니라 주변의 사람을 아끼기 때문이다.

The one that apologizes first after an argument is not because they are wrong but because they cherish those close to them

너를 나서서 도와주려는 이는, 너에게 빚진 게 있어서 그런게 아니라 너를 진정한 친구로 생각하기 때문이다.

The one that actively tries to help you is not because they owe you something but because they think of you as a true friend 

늘 너에게 정보를 주는 이는, 한가하고 할 일이 없어서 그러는게 아니라 마음 속에 너를 두고 있기 때문이다.

The one that always gives you information is not because they have so much free time and nothing better to do but because they keep you inside their heart

상대방의 입장에서 보면 이해안되는 일이 없는데...

살면서 조금씩 순수함과 너그러운 마음을 멀리하지나 않았을까라는 생각을 해봅니다.

We are all born with a pure and generous heart, but as we age, we tend to lose this purity little by little. We must thrive to keep the good and purity in our hearts that many lose as they become adults.

Real people, real results
